This video is a demonstration of the EthereumBlockchain solution developed by our team for the Blockchain Virtual GovHack.
The demonstration shows the multiple Ethereum nodes built for a solution that allows for UAEPropertyTitle Deeds to be stored on a GovernmentLand Registry. The solutions caters for asset ownership transfer from Property Seller to Buyer, approved via the LandDepartment and demonstrates possible integration with other Government entities like DEWA. We developed this Blockchain solution in less than 4 weeks specifically for the hackathon, and leveraged the Makani API to get GPS location data for properties. We also utilized an IPFS document management platform to store documents like the EmiratesID, Title Deed document, TenancyContract and Ejari Certificate against the hashed reference pointer for each property.

International trading involves many participants all around the globe. These participants may not necessarily have the needed trust of all parties, especially at the initial stages, when newcomers join the trade. Blockchain can provide the needed trust to capture key transaction activities as immutable records, as well as storing and sharing encrypted legal and financial documents.
Visibility of transaction records and documents are tightly controlled by blockchain, permitting sharing only among entrusted and allowed parties. In this demo, IBM demonstrates how blockchain may support such an application.

Smart contract

Smart contracts are computer protocols that facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation or performance of a contract, or that obviate the need for a contractual clause. Smart contracts usually also have a user interface and often emulate the logic of contractual clauses. Proponents of smart contracts claim that many kinds of contractual clauses may thus be made partially or fully self-executing, self-enforcing, or both. Smart contracts aim to provide security superior to traditional contract law and to reduce other transaction costs associated with contracting.

While currently considered only a financial tool, the blockchain’s actual capability is extremely broad. Just as advances in TCP/IP created vast opportunities for the internet, the blockchain is enabling us to rethink the basic infrastructure of how energy is distributed, accounted for and secured.
**BonusDemo:** Be sure to watch at the end of this talk, as a Bitcoin transfer from Cambridge in real time buys electricity for a small school in South Africa.

In our previous video MichaelGoldstein explained how the Bitcoin network can be used for more functions on top of the currency transfers. This functionality is called smart contracts and it consists of adding to each Bitcoin transaction some code script to "condition" transfers to external events happening as a requisite to the transfer.
For example "time locking" can be used to determine a future moment in time to execute the transfer, 3 signatures can be established to have third parties verify transactions, or assurance contracts can be determined to enable funding for special projects.
In this interview Michael explains another functionatlity that can be integrated to Bitcoin transactions: SmartProperty.

In our previous video MichaelGoldstein explained how the Bitcoin network can be used for more functions on top of the currency transfers. This functionality is called smart contracts and it consists of adding to each Bitcoin transaction some code script to "condition" transfers to external events happening as a requisite to the transfer.
For example "time locking" can be used to determine a future moment in time to execute the transfer, 3 signatures can be established to have third parties verify transactions, or assurance contracts can be determined to enable funding for special projects.

Blockchain (or distributed ledger) technology and smart contracts may soon be used to hold and transfer financial assets, such as currency, securities and derivatives. A consistent analysis of the new technology’s impact on the law and regulation underlying financial markets and on wider legal issues has yet to be undertaken. Academia, regulators, lawmakers and the financial industry have to unite in this exercise and develop the axioms of a legal and regulatory framework that follows a universal conception, as the potential and the limits of the new technology are of universal concern. This conference is conceived to kick-start global discussion.

This tutorial shows the following:
- How to create multiple public and private bitcoin Testnet key pairs.
- How to claim some bitcoins from a faucet and transfer it to a sender address.
- How to make a bitcoin transaction by transferring all bitcoins from a sender address to receiver address.
This tutorial also explains:
- What UTXO (Unspent TransactionOutput) is.
- What a confirmation is.
In this video series different topics will be explained which will help you to understand blockchain.
Bitcoin released as open source software in 2009 is a cryptocurrency invented by Satoshi Nakamoto (unidentified person or group of persons).
After the introduction of Bitcoin many Bitcoin alternatives were created. These alternate cryptocurrencies are called Altcoins (Litecoin, Dodgecoin etc).
Bitcoin's underlying technology is called Blockchain.
The Blockchain is a distributed decentralized incorruptible database (ledger) that records blocks of digital information. Each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block.
Soon people realises that there many other use cases where the Blockchain technology can be applied and not just as a cryptocurrency application.
New Blockchain platforms were created based on the Blockchain technology, one of which is called Ethereum.
Ethereum focuses on running programming code, called smart contracts, on any decentralized application.
Using the new Blockchain platforms, Blockchain technology can be used in supply chain management, healthcare, real estate, identity management, voting, internet of things, etcetera, just to name a few.
Today there is a growing interest in Blockchain not only in the financial sector but also in other sectors.
Explaining how Blockchain works is not easy and for many the Blockchain technology remains an elusive concept.
This video series tries to explain Blockchain to a large audience but from the bottom up.
Keywords often used in Blockchain conversation will be explained.
Each Blockchain video is short and to the point.
It is recommended to watch each video sequentially as I may refer to certain Blockchain topics explained earlier.

Blockchain Virtual GovHack - Title Deeds and Land Registry entry

This video is a demonstration of the EthereumBlockchain solution developed by our team for the Blockchain Virtual GovHack.
The demonstration shows the multiple Ethereum nodes built for a solution that allows for UAEPropertyTitle Deeds to be stored on a GovernmentLand Registry. The solutions caters for asset ownership transfer from Property Seller to Buyer, approved via the LandDepartment and demonstrates possible integration with other Government entities like DEWA. We developed this Blockchain solution in less than 4 weeks specifically for the hackathon, and leveraged the Makani API to get GPS location data for properties. We also utilized an IPFS document management platform to store documents like the EmiratesID, Title Deed document, TenancyContract and Ejari Certificate against the hashed reference pointer for each property.

International Trade Solution on Blockchain

International trading involves many participants all around the globe. These participants may not necessarily have the needed trust of all parties, especially at the initial stages, when newcomers join the trade. Blockchain can provide the needed trust to capture key transaction activities as immutable records, as well as storing and sharing encrypted legal and financial documents.
Visibility of transaction records and documents are tightly controlled by blockchain, permitting sharing only among entrusted and allowed parties. In this demo, IBM demonstrates how blockchain may support such an application.

The Blockchain: Enabling a Distributed and Connected Energy Future

Bitcoin’s underlying protocol, called “the blockchain”, is a distributed consensus-driven infrastructure enabling trust between connected assets. While currently considered only a financial tool, the blockchain’s actual capability is extremely broad. Just as advances in TCP/IP created vast opportunities for the internet, the blockchain is enabling us to rethink the basic infrastructure of how energy is distributed, accounted for and secured.

Trading Commerical Paper via blockchain with IBM Bluemix

This application displays two users trading commercial paper with each other on IBM Bluemix. In this demo, all users start with $10,000,000 after they register. For example, a user can create a paper worth $100,000, and publish it to the trade center. Other users can log in and buy paper, triggering a transfer of money from their account to the original user. These asset transfers are all recorded on the blockchain network, and the rules governing these transfers are captured in a smart contract that is deployed on the blockchain network.

201 Application of Blockchain to Transfer pricing & VAT

30% of global trade is intra-firm trade and transfer pricing regulations require cross-border transactions between related parties to adhere to arm's length price or fair price. Smart contracts will have major application for groups in their cross-border transfer pricing practices.
On the government side, blockchain can bring substantial efficiencies to VAT collection and build critical inter-governmental trust relationships by reducing the revenue losses well in excess of €50 to €60 billion per year in missing trader intra-community fraud (MTIC).

The Blockchain: Enabling a Distributed and Connected Energy Future

Bitcoin’s underlying protocol, called “the blockchain”, is a distributed consensus-driven infrastructure enabling trust between connected assets. While currently considered only a financial tool, the blockchain’s actual capability is extremely broad. Just as advances in TCP/IP created vast opportunities for the internet, the blockchain is enabling us to rethink the basic infrastructure of how energy is distributed, accounted for and secured.

In our previous video MichaelGoldstein explained how the Bitcoin network can be used for more functions on top of the currency transfers. This functionality is called smart contracts and it consists of adding to each Bitcoin transaction some code script to "condition" transfers to external events happening as a requisite to the transfer.
For example "time locking" can be used to determine a future moment in time to execute the transfer, 3 signatures can be established to have third parties verify transactions, or assurance contracts can be determined to enable funding for special projects.
In this interview Michael explains another functionatlity that can be integrated to Bitcoin transactions: SmartProperty.
He talked about:
- How the block chain, ledger, mining, proof-of-work, and network consensus work.
- What is smart property.
- Real life examples.
- Public and private key management.
- How property can be registered, transferred, and used on the block chain.

Blockchain, smart contracts and systemic issues - Philipp Paech

Recorded on 26 May 2017 at the LSE Law and Financial Markets Project Conference, 'Blockchain financial assets and beyond: legal and regulatory perspectives'
Speaker: Philipp Paech (LSE Law)
Blockchain (or distributed ledger) technology and smart contracts may soon be used to hold and transfer financial assets, such as currency, securities and derivatives. A consistent analysis of the new technology’s impact on the law and regulation underlying financial markets and on wider legal issues has yet to be undertaken. Academia, regulators, lawmakers and the financial industry have to unite in this exercise and develop the axioms of a legal and regulatory framework that follows a universal conception, as the potential and the limits of the new technology are of universal concern. This conference is conceived to kick-start global discussion.

Deploying a private Ethereum blockchain to Microsoft Azure Cloud

This video demonstrates the automated provisioning of all necessary Microsoft Azure resources like VMs, storage, network settings etc. as well as the configuration of Go Ethereum (geth) and accounts. It also stands up an administration website to monitor the nodes in the network and provide ether to new accounts.

Blockchain is a disruptive technology trend that enables a shared, authentic, decentralized ledger. It enables the fiercest of competitors to collaborate without trusting each other, establishing a shared view of a cross-organizational business process. This session covers patterns for creating, configuring, and querying blockchain-enabled smart contracts on Azure that leverage both “traditional” cloud middleware and a suite of new Azure capabilities to support blockchain development._x000D_
